After evening self-study, the two met at the bus stop near the shopping mall as usual.

The students of the nearby No. 1 Middle School have long been surprised. Some people who have played with Zhang Ang ridiculed.

"Dashuai, pick up your girlfriend home?"

Zhang Ang smiled and nodded.

Seeing this, Xinyu turned around and walked a few steps briskly to widen the distance between him. Zhang Ang rode up closely.

Little ostrich, see how long you can load.

Behind them, Qin Zhiyi closed the window of the car and drove to follow.

She suddenly remembered that she hadn't come to see her eldest daughter this month, so she waited for her at the bus stop on a whim. I didn't expect to see such a scene.

The boy she remembers. In the photo I saw in the circle of friends of my little daughter's classmates, wherever my youngest daughter Xinyue looked, it was him.

But what I saw was that he was in love with his eldest daughter.

Looking at their performance, even if they are not in love, they must be in tacit ambiguity.

Thinking of Xinyue's recent abnormality, the more Qin Zhiyi thought about it, the more confused her heart became, she accelerated with one foot of the accelerator, and then stopped beside them.

"Heart Rain."

Xinyu looked at her mother sitting in a luxury car, with exquisite makeup and a serious expression, and her joy was mixed with a little strangeness.

After all, sometimes you don't see each other once in a month or two, so how can you not be a stranger.

"Mom."

Zhang Ang looked at the mother and daughter, one in the car and the other outside the car, and after saying hello, they turned out to be cold. He himself felt a little embarrassed when he looked at it as an outsider.

"Hello Auntie, my name is Zhang Ang, and I am Xinyu's classmate."

"Oh, hello, hello. Do you also live in this neighborhood? ”

Knowing the inquiry in her words, Zhang Ang explained honestly: "It's not here, but it's not far, by the way." ”

Xinyu hurriedly added: "He is the class leader, I am the deputy class leader, and we are discussing the class activities by the way." ”

Zhang Ang smiled but did not speak.

Zhang Ang, Xinyu and Qin Zhiyi sat in a clean beverage shop on the first floor of the shopping mall.

Qin Zhiyi ordered a latte and handed the menu to Zhang Ang.

"Classmate Zhang can order whatever you want to drink, you're welcome, Auntie is in for a treat."

"Thank you, Auntie."

casually ordered a cup of kumquat lemon, and asked Xinyu in a low voice what he wanted to drink, and Xinyu also ordered kumquat lemon.

Zhang Ang asked the waiter, "Can kumquat lemon be made warm?" ”

"I'm sorry, sir. Only room temperature. ”

"That's two glasses at room temperature."

Xinyu was puzzled, "When you send you water during basketball training, you always ask for ice, why don't you add ice?" ”

Zhang Ang glanced at her with meaningful eyes.

She suddenly remembered that she was in a hurry to change her tampon during recess today, and accidentally dropped the dilemma of being seen by him. With a blushing face, he picked up the white water on the table and took a few sips.

Qin Zhiyi saw the interaction between the two in his eyes. While gossiping with Xinyu, she observed Zhang Ang quietly.

I have to say that Zhang Ang, whether it is his appearance, temperament or conversation, is extremely attractive to a little girl of Xinyu Xinyue's age. If she had such a son, she would be proud of him; If her daughter can attract such an excellent boy, she will also be happy for her daughter. But the problem is that it seems that both of her daughters like him.

This made her very unhappy.

Zhang Ang began to follow his father often at the age of seven or eight, and he had already developed a keen emotional intelligence. He could feel that Xinyu's mother was watching him, scrutinizing him, guarding against him. He understood. Out of a mother's concern for her daughter, her reaction is understandable.

However, because of the existence of the time bomb Xu Xinyue, his evaluation in Xinyu's mother's heart may also be very bad.

Before the girlfriend catches up, she has to face her mother's encirclement. Liang Xinyu, I want to settle all the accounts on you, and then slowly compensate me.

Looking at Zhang Ang, who had been smiling and listening to the gossip of their mother and daughter, Xinyu was a little reluctant.

"Squad leader, didn't you say that you haven't done your physics homework yet? Why don't you go back first, we'll discuss the basketball game tomorrow. ”

Zhang Ang nodded.

At this time, Qin Zhiyi took out her mobile phone, "Classmate Zhang and Auntie should leave a phone call for each other." My family's heart is rainy, no matter what happens, they don't like to tell me, classmate Zhang is the class leader, help me pay more attention to her, and call my aunt if there is any trouble. ”

"Mom, don't you have Brother Qiang's phone?"

"Brother Qiang is the head teacher, busy, how can I have time to pay attention to you. Come, Mr. Zhang, report the number. ”

Zhang Ang obediently reported the number.

"Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely supervise her well."

"Then Auntie thank you first, Auntie will invite you to dinner another day. Don't shirk. ”

"Auntie is polite, it should be me inviting Auntie to dinner." He pointed to something. "Liang Xinyu, see you tomorrow."

Seeing that he was walking away, Qin Zhiyi relaxed his body and leaned back in the chair. I don't know why, I am obviously an elder, but in the face of Zhang Ang, I unconsciously cheered up very energetically.

"You reacted quickly, and just took the person away. I haven't asked him yet. ”

"Mom, what are you going to ask him?" Xinyu is a little weak-hearted.

"You don't have to pretend in front of me. Are you in a relationship with him? ”

"Nope."

"Then let me ask another way, do you like him?"

Xinyu didn't answer. But she was her mother after all. Although she has not seen each other often in the past six or seven years, her behavior and habits are still the same as when she was a child, and there has been no major change. Thinking of the years she was missing, Qin Zhiyi's eyes turned red.

"You've been like this since you were a child. The more I like something, the more I like to hide it from others. If I ask you, you just don't say. Why can't you be as simple as Xinyue? ”

Xinyu didn't answer.

She didn't want to tell her mother that she liked to hide what she liked since she was a child, because Xinyue always liked to rob. As small as an eraser and a notebook, as long as Xinyue likes it, she wants to let it. What makes her even more sad is that after she let it go, even if Xinyue is tired of playing, throwing it away, or tearing it up, she won't return it to her.

So she's reluctant to let people know what she really likes. She also wanted to be like Xinyue, she grabbed what she liked first, but she didn't rely on it, so she couldn't.

Qin Zhiyi saw that she was silent as always, and that sense of powerlessness rose from her heart again.

"Mom doesn't say you're bad, Mom wants you to be happy."

Qin Zhiyi picked up the coffee and poured it down. Xinyu wanted to tell her that she didn't put sugar, but it was too late.

Qin Zhiyi frowned and swallowed. With a snap, he put the cup down heavily. The coffee in the cup shook, splashing on her hands and cuffs, and her brow furrowed even more tightly as the white cuffs were strewled with dots of coffee stains. Pulling out a face towel and wiping it didn't help, so he threw the tissue on the table in anger.

Xinyu looked at her all the time, knowing that she should be in a bad mood now, but she didn't know what to say.

If it is Xinyue, there must be a way to make her mother laugh; Or if it's Xinyue who is sitting with her mother now, maybe her mood won't be so bad.

Qin Zhiyi took a deep breath and asked the waiter to serve her another cup of kumquat lemon at room temperature with ice.

After taking a sip of the cool fruit drink, Qin Zhiyi's mood also improved a lot.

"Xinyu, mom asked you something, it has something to do with Xinyue, you must not hide it from me." Qin Zhiyi looked at her eldest daughter's eyes and asked, "Does Xinyue also like Zhang Ang?" ”

"Yes."

"You know?"

"She told me. She said she fell in love with Zhang Ang at first sight. ”

Qin Zhiyi looked at her eldest daughter who said this expressionlessly, and a wave of anger surged in her heart, and she tried her best to continue to ask her in a calm tone.

"When did she tell you? Before or after you and Jang Ang were together? ”

"Is there a difference?"

"Liang Xinyu!"

The sound of her banging on the table caught the attention of the rest of the store.

Xinyu hugged her schoolbag and quietly looked at her mother, who was a little out of control.

Qin Zhiyi drank several sips of ice drink in a row, looked at her eldest daughter's indifferent appearance, and asked her heartbrokenly: "How can you say such a thing so indifferently?" Is there a difference? Of course there is a difference! She told you a long time ago that she liked that kid, and you were still good with him, do you have a little sisterhood for Xinyue?! Okay, I'll just be cold-blooded and don't care about Xinyue's sister, so what about me? Twin sisters fight for the same man, spread what others think of me......"

"That's a pity, it's already out the story. Not only No. 1 Middle School, Dacheng, but other schools know about it. ”

Qin Zhiyi looked at Xinyu in a daze, as if she didn't know her.

"Are you taking revenge on me? You hate me...... Hate that I didn't take you away back then, so you have to take revenge on me and hurt me by hurting the Heart Moon...... Isn't it? ”

Xinyu's eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and she couldn't see her mother's expression clearly. It's okay if you can't see it. You don't have to look at it to know that it should be disgusted.

Qin Zhiyi took out a tissue and wiped her tears. Take out the makeup mirror and check your appearance. Neatly pull out a note and place it on the table. Get up and leave.

Da Da Da ...... The sound of high heels that gradually faded away stepped on Xinyu's heart one after another. There was no blood, but it hurt.

She hugged her bag tightly and buried her head in the cloth bag, tears falling on it, infecting different shades of color.

Zhang Ang, who had been waiting at the door of the store, looked at Qin Zhiyi, who was leaving with an aura of not approaching people, and rushed into the store. Looking at the heart rain that hugged himself together, I felt distressed.

Half squatted beside her and called her softly: "Xinyu, it's me, Zhang Ang." ”

She turned her head not wanting him to see her like this. He grabbed the tissue on the table and wiped his tears and snot. Then he bowed his head and walked out briskly.

Zhang Ang followed.

She shuttled through the crowd aimlessly, and when an electric car almost crashed into her, Zhang Ang protected her and forcibly pulled her into an open area.

Looking at her eyes that were still full of moisture, she said softly: "I'll send you home, go back and sleep well, tomorrow is a new day." Well? ”

Xinyu shook her head, "Do you know what I have to face every time my mother comes to see me?" Vituperate. Stepmom's endless abuse. My dad, either hiding in the toilet or in the room. I had time to run to my room, but if I didn't, she would have to be stuck in the living room or in the hallway and let her spray saliva on my face, no matter how many times I washed it, I could smell the fishy smell. So even if I go back, I still can't help but run away. And then wander around everywhere......"

Zhang Ang couldn't listen anymore, and stepped forward to hug her tightly.
